Jackson 5K

Jackson is hosting its first ever 5k Run and Fitness Walk March Sunday, March 28. The 5k will start at downtown Miami’s Bayfront Park. The race begins at 8 a.m. and features a Holtz Children’s Hospital Kids Play Zone and Jackson Health Village. The Jackson 5K is a 3.1 mile road race/walk open to all ages. All levels of runners/walkers are encouraged to come out. This is the first community-wide fundraising event we have ever held and we have every hope of growing into a widely anticipated annual event. The run is expected to attract several thousand participants with proceeds going to benefit Jackson Memorial Hospital. The goal of the Jackson 5K is two-fold, to promote running and walking as a means to a fit, healthy lifestyle for people from all walks of life and secondly to provide a community wide platform for the Jackson Memorial Hospital System and the Jackson Memorial Foundation to feature and promote all aspects of medical care services available as well as raise funds and awareness on behalf of the Hospital.
